Public bug reported:
Installed transmission-daemon 2.82-1.1ubuntu3 on a server (Ubuntu 14.04
LTS) on the local network. When trying to connect through any
webbrowser, it says:
"""
409: Conflict
Your request had an invalid session-id header.
To fix this, follow these steps:
When reading a response, get its X-Transmission-Session-Id header and
remember it
Add the updated header to your outgoing requests
When you get this 409 error message, resend your request with the updated
header
This requirement has been added to help prevent CSRF attacks.
X-Transmission-Session-Id: <session id, different for different browser
sessions>
"""
It used to properly connect in older versions. The only known fix I could find
is to recompile it without:
#define REQUIRE_SESSION_ID
in libtransmission/rpc-server.c
I was wondering if there is another way to get around this problem, the
package is totally unusable as is.
